Third Quarter 2011 Financial Results

• Net sales for the third quarter of 2011 were $12.7 million, a decrease of $6.5 million or 33.8%, compared to $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to the delay of AQSIQ's online publicity of the new production license which our Company received in March 2011. As a result, we temporarily ceased production in June 2011.
• We incurred $6.9 million of net loss for the third quarter of 2011, compared with $2.7 million of net income for the third quarter of 2010. This is primarily due to the decrease in net sales and the increase in operating expenses.
• Fully-diluted loss per share for the third quarter of 2011 was $0.25, compared to fully-diluted earnings per share of $0.10 in the third quarter of 2010.

"The third quarter was an unusual quarter for Rodobo. During the quarter, we were made aware of an incident where a third party distributor sold products that we marked as "obsolete" and as a result we pulled from the shelves. These actions were in violation of our explicit instructions and certain food safety standards. As a result, while we recently were issued a production license from the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the PRC ("AQSIQ"), the AQSIQ nonetheless decided to delay its online publicity of our new license. Because of this, we realized a significant reduction in sales orders and decided to temporarily cease production in June," stated Mr. Yanbin Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "After an investigation conducted by the local police into the actions of this third party, both the local police and AQSIQ determined that there was no direct link between our Company and this third party's illegal activities, and that our products are safe. As a result of our continuous efforts in communicating with the AQSIQ and other related governmental departments over the past month, we are extremely pleased to now report that we have received this online publicity from the AQSIQ on August 11, 2011. Thus, as we anticipated, Rododo's product quality has now been officially recognized by the Chinese food safety authority. We will gradually recover our sales channels and are now looking forward to rebuilding our brand image in the fourth quarter of 2011 through a series of promotional activities. We believe that this adverse impact will be temporary and we will continue to provide Rodobo's high quality and nutritious milk powder products to our customers."

HARBIN, China, June 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/--Rodobo International, Inc. ("Rodobo", or the "Company") (OTC Bulletin Board: RDBO), a fast growing producer and distributor of high-quality formula milk powder for infants, children, the middle aged and the elderly, today announced that it has adjusted its third quarter 2011 guidance previously announced on May 16, 2011 by reducing the

• sales revenue from the range of $23 - $26 million to the range of $12 - $14 million,
• net income from the range of $3.5 - $3.8 to net loss in the range of $2 - $4 million, due to a delay of the online publicity of the new production license which the Company received in March, 2011.　

As previously announced, on March 15, 2011, the Company received a new production license for its operating subsidiary in China, Harbin Rodobo Dairy Co., Ltd ("Harbin Rodobo"), issued by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the PRC ("AQSIQ"). Generally, as soon as the formal production license is issued, the Heilongjiang Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision ("HBQTS"), the provincial subsidiary of AQSIQ, also issues an online publicity ("Publicity) announcing the new production license on AQSIQ's official website. However, in our instance HBQTS informed us that it delayed the Publicity due to technical problem.  

Coincidently, during the period between the receipt of new production license and the Publicity, we were notified of an incident where a third party distributor apparently sold our products in violation of our express instructions and food safety standards.  While most of our products have an average shelf life of 18 to 24 months, we find that consumers are reluctant to buy products that have only 2 to 3 months of their remaining shelf life.  As a result, we often pull these products from the shelves, mark them as "obsolete", and in accordance with standard industry practice, sell these products marked as "obsolete" to manufacturers of feedstuff for animals.  In accordance with this practice, in May of 2010 we entered into a sales agreement with Harbin Longxin Feedstuff Co., Ltd ("Longxin") to sell 38 tons of our infant formula milk powder that had been marked as "obsolete".  In the sales agreement, Longxin expressly guaranteed that our obsolete milk powder would only be used as feedstuff for animals.  All products sold to Longxin were marked "obsolete" by Rodobo, in accordance with our standard procedures.  We have been advised that despite our express instructions and the requirements of the sales agreement, Longxin resold our obsolete products to a third party manufacturer, Inner Mongolia Jiahaili Co., Ltd. ("Jiahaili"), who illegally used the obsolete milk powder to produce food products for human consumption.  A food safety authority reviewed this matter and reported it to the local police for further investigation.  After investigating, the local police determined that there is no direct link between our company and Jiahaili's illegal activities.  While we were unaware at the time that our obsolete products were resold in this manner, we have actively assisted the local police and will continue to do so while the police continue to investigate Jiahaili's activities until the matter is resolved.  We intend to continue to vigorously investigate this situation and take any and all actions we deem appropriate to defend and protect Rodobo and its subsidiaries with respect to the circumstances and illegal usage of our products.

AQSIQ has been made aware of this matter and has conservatively decided to delay our Publicity until the police investigation is closed. This delay in Publicity does not prevent us from utilizing our production license. While we have explained to our customers and distributors that we have received and can utilize our production license, this delay in Publicity has significantly impacted our sales.  As a result of this, our production was impacted due to reduction of sales orders.

"The quality of our products and the safety of our consumers is our top priority.  Currently, in order to enhance consumers and distributor's confidence in our products, we are actively communicating with AQSIQ and other relevant government departments to complete the Publicity as soon as possible. We anticipate that we will receive this Publicity within a month," stated Mr. Yanbin Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "It is management's obligation to notify our investors of this anticipated adverse impact. According to our preliminary estimates, we have decided to adjust our third quarter 2011 guidance previously announced on May 16, 2011 by reducing the sales revenue from the range of $23 - $26 million to the range of $12 - $14 million, and net income from the range of $3.5 - $3.8 to net loss in the range of $2 - $4 million. We will continue to monitor this situation and when necessary or advisable provide updated information relating to this event and its impact on our financial performance to our shareholders and consumers in a timely manner. We believe that this adverse impact will be temporary and we remain confident in our high-quality, nutritious and fresh milk powder products. "

"We are pleased to report another quarter of record revenue and strong profitability.

"During the quarter, we focused on enhancing product quality by refurnishing the testing laboratory and production facilities with more advanced testing instruments and production equipment in compliance with the new regulations promulgated by the Chinese government in November 2010, consequently, we received the production license renewal in March. We believe that the license renewal was an important milestone for Rodobo as it demonstrates that our consistent efforts on quality control have been well recognized by the Chinese government even with the government's increasing scrutiny of the infant milk powder industry. We will continue to focus on preserving the trust of the government and our customers in the future by continuing to provide Rodobo's high quality and nutritious milk powder products to our customers."
